Shame by The Dear Hunter Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You had them fooled, and I’ll admit, you had me too
But you’re awfully chic to act so clean
I can sense a shake, an oscillation in your voice
The closet’s full, but the door’s swinging open
[Chorus]
Shame
That you couldn’t suffer the blame
‘Cause now it’s the only way
That you could find a fix to mend
[Verse 2]
It’s the art of deceit, with elegance you’d plea
To captivate, but never was there doubt
And I heard the sirens sound as you were standing still in a silent calm
With curtains drawn, cursing at the light
[Chorus]
Shame
That you couldn’t suffer the blame
‘Cause now it’s the only way
That you could find a fix to mend this
Shame that you wouldn’t suffer the blame
You know it’s the only way
That you could find a fix to mend these lies
[Bridge]
You’re not leaving anything back in this world for us
So don’t go taking anything back from this world but
[Chorus]
Shame
That you couldn’t suffer the blame
‘Cause now it’s the only way
That you could find a fix to mend these lies
You had them fooled, and I’ll admit, you had me too
But you’re awfully chic to act so clean
I can sense a shake, an oscillation in your voice
The closet’s full, but the door’s swinging open
[Chorus]
Shame
That you couldn’t suffer the blame
‘Cause now it’s the only way
That you could find a fix to mend
[Verse 2]
It’s the art of deceit, with elegance you’d plea
To captivate, but never was there doubt
And I heard the sirens sound as you were standing still in a silent calm
With curtains drawn, cursing at the light
[Chorus]
Shame
That you couldn’t suffer the blame
‘Cause now it’s the only way
That you could find a fix to mend this
Shame that you wouldn’t suffer the blame
You know it’s the only way
That you could find a fix to mend these lies
[Bridge]
You’re not leaving anything back in this world for us
So don’t go taking anything back from this world but
[Chorus]
Shame
That you couldn’t suffer the blame
‘Cause now it’s the only way
That you could find a fix to mend these lies
